The Blazers made a change to their starting lineup, starting Pat Connaughton over Moe Harkless. Connaughton played just 15 minutes, but this further goes to show us just how bad Harkless has been this season. With the rise of Shabazz Napier and the return of Al-Farouq Aminu coming, the outlook for Harkless could get worse.

JUsuf Nurkic helped carry the big men versus the Nets narrative. He has been disappointing this season, but he still has a chance to be a top 50 gu and this performance showed us how.

Jarrett Allen is someone to definitely watch. He played big minutes and was active and has been closing games for the Nets at centre. If you have a little bit of a buffer, Allen could be a real force once we hit 2018.

Tyler Zeller remained starting even with Trevor Booker back, but I wouldn’t be searching for much in his performances. He will likely be overtaken by Allen at some point.

Quincy Acy was out of the rotation with Booker back, but it’s hard to know if that will be permanent and it will be he and Zeller fighting for that last big man spot in the rotation.

Joe Harris was solid again, and he definitely needs to be owned in more leagues than he currently is. He isn't a standard league guy, but he can definitely be steamed into a 12 team league and not look out of place for a day or two.

The Magic were embarrassing, so their starters saw limited minutes. There really isn’t much to take out of this game apart from the fact that they do in fact miss Jonathan Isaac and will be straight back in the rotation when his ankle allows it.

Terry Rozier put up a huge night, on unsustainable shooting. Something that doesn’t get mentioned much is that Rozier has been a worse shooter than Marcus Smart over the past two seasons, so a 73 percent night is a little unexpected. I wouldn’t be rushing to add him.

Aron Baynes was good off the bench, and he will likely start Saturday with Marcus Morris out with knee soreness. He is a decent stream guy in a deeper format.

I think it’s time to say goodbye to Jonas Valanciunas. Just 14 minutes and Pascal Siakam again played more minutes Friday, and it’s hard to see Dwane Casey reversing course.

As for Siakam, his minutes are rising, but he isn't a huge stats sort of player, so I would look at him in deeper leagues only.

Fred VanVleet will have value until Delon Wright comes very well be the high watermark.

You know it’s a tough night at the office when Lance Stephenson drops four triples on you. Don’t get too excited for Lance.

Victor Oladipo left the game in the fourth quarter after a knock on his knee. If he misses time, Lance could, in fact, become useful, although Cory Joseph would also get a significant chunk of minutes, but not neither guy would really be intriguing in 12 team leagues.

MYles Turner got into early foul trouble, and I would be buying very low. Send two players who are outside the top 50 for Turner, send your guys like Serge Ibaka, and see if the owner bites.

Stanley Johnson showed us what Kyle McKeown has been touting for a while - that he can be an impactful fantasy contributor. I’m not rushing to grab Johnson yet, but this was a nice, well-rounded performance.

Ish Smith put up a nice game, but to me, he is more of a ‘stream in when there are only three games on’ type of player. For 12 team leagues.

The Thunder are increasing the minutes of Josh Huestis and reducing the role of Alex Abrines and Patrick Patterson recently. Keep an eye on that for deep leagues. Huestis is really not much of a fantasy factor, though.

Just so we are clear, Russell Westbrook went 6-of-7 from the line, and I think his issue is fixed.

With Nicolas Batum out, Jeremy Lamb stepped up again, but it doesn’t appear as though Batum is going to be out long-term, reducing Lamb back to a role in the low 20s. I would still hold Lamb, but his value will be hurt a lot.

Michael Carter-Williams put up a nice line, and he is clearly ahead of Malik Monk for the backup point guard role. He is still a deep league guy, but we have seen him rack up stats in the NBA before.

Jose Calderon made another start and with Derrick Rose’s future cloudy, very deep leagues will want to look at him. But, with Iman Shumpert due back next week, he could fall out of the rotation again.

Jae Crowder was solid, but he looks like he is going to remain as a 14 team guy.

JaMychal Green did not miss and therefore scored a lot of points. He did nothing else, and while he is a 12 team guy, his ceiling is pretty low given his lack of peripheral stats.

Chandler Parsons played 25 minutes, and that is the most important number for him at the moment. He is looking like he is poised to make an impact in 2018.

Kenneth Faried went from DNP-Cd to starting and playing 31 minutes, putting up a nice 14 and nine game. I can’t work it out either. I don’t think he is a priority add for 12 team leagues, but if he starts, he does fit well with Nikola Jokic.

Jamal Murray finally played over 24 minutes and filled the box score. Hopefully, Michael Malone can stick with him longer than he has been.

It’s hard to work out why Will Barton played just 17 minutes. Just as I was coming around on him as well...

The Darius Miller three-point train continued, as he drilled another three triples and played 28 minutes. The minutes appear consistent, so he is definitely worth a look in deeper leagues.

Rajon Rondo added seven assists and should be owned, but it’s not like he is blowing anyone away at the moment.

The Suns moved Marquese Chriss to the bench, but instead of playing your other young power forward, they started Greg Monroe alongside Tyson Chandler. Monroe played 12 minutes and is still worthy of holding in 12 team leagues, but I doubt it lasts.

As for Chriss, he saw 14 minutes and was bad, as usual.

Alex Len saw action after getting a DNP-CD last game, so working out the Suns’ rotations is going to be anyone's guess.

The Bulls are horrid. That is allowing Bobby Portis to do what he does best - jack up shots in garbage time. He is not worth a spot in 12 team league, despite the apparent green light to shoot in the fourth quarter.

I wouldn't read too much into Jerian Grant’s big game - he shot 8-of-10, a totally unrepeatable performance.

Jordan Bell is very good. A team like, say the Bulls, could've really used him. But, he has literally been in street clothes for most of the recent games. That should change, and he should play ahead of Kevon Looney, but he is just a deep league guy. But, for dynasty leagues, how can you not love his upside for a couple of season’s time.
